Friday Night Recap - Valero Texas Open
Hello members,
Unfortunately, Round 2 could not be completed today. There are 55 golfers left on the course to finish up tomorrow morning. Patrick Rodgers balled out again today to be the leader by three at 11-under. His current odds are +250 and no one will catch him if he keeps playing like this. The current projected cut is Even.
My picks of Matt Kuchar and Corey Connors are looking pretty good. Corey is tied for 2nd place at 8-under and three back from the leader, Rodgers. He also is getting 💩 on online on his "lack of putting" skill. Whatever.
66-67 👏
Consistent play has @PRodgersGolf in the lead @valerotxopen.

Weather
Another warm day tomorrow. Some storms possible too. Temperatures ranging from 66 to 87.
Updated Betting Odds
My pre-tournament picks:
Matt Kuchar - +1400 - 1-under so far through Round 2 with one hole left tomorrow. Currently T8.
Corey Conners - +400 - shot Even today to remain 8-under and currently in T2.
Adam Schenk - +50000 - has a few holes left to make the cut. Currently 1-over for the tournament and needs to get to Even at least to make the cut.

Twitter Roundup
Going through 1959 issues of @GolfDigest for a cool archival project and came across this ad for @PinehurstResort offering a weeklong stay-and-play package at "America's Golfing Paradise" for $99 per person. (Sweet deal.)
